ZARA McDermott “passed out” during a demanding rehearsal with axed Strictly star Graziano Di Prima.
Resurfaced footage from last year’s series shows an exhausted Zara curled up on the training room floor ahead of Halloween week.
Zara originally shared the footage on social media and told followers: “I think I’ve clocked around 50K steps already today with this routine.”
